Hi, my name is actipper. I came across your site by chance through the Atari forum.
I downloaded one of your bombing run maps, without any great expectations to be honest, and was pleasantly surprised :)
I bought UT2004 about nine months ago on the recommendation of some people I play AssaultCube with. I haven't been playing pc games; or any other format for that matter, for much more than eighteen months or so. Computer games were not around when I was a kid.
Anyway, I found that UT2k4 was a fantastic game and bombing run became my favorite mode. I have played on line a little, but found that most players had been at it for so long that finding a level at which I could compete was virtually impossible :(
I play UT mostly off line now (gasps all round) and play AssaultCube online.
I'm pleased to find that some people are still interested in UT2k4 and that there is still an active community for this game. I was under the impression that most UT fans had moved on to UT2007 which imo isn't a patch on 2k4.
Good work people. I'm impressed by the maps. Best wishes to and for your clan.

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, we're still here, playing mostly VCTF and a little BR from time to time. If we have an organized BR night sometime soon (been thinking about it), we'll send you a PM and hopefully you can make it.

VCTF maybe just for you, it has many positions to play and several that allow new players to score and play an active role in the outcome. Aside from that, we're willing to help you learn all the tricks asap. I'm sure you'll find a couple of fun positions in a week or 2.

Hmmm, if CTC sponsored a BR night, maybe our long lost friend Karnegdon [DAM] would join us. :0

Edit: Forgot to add a "Hello & Welcome" to ACTipper.

I feel a BR night a brewing. That would be great! Welcome actripper to our humble little area. We have a map section on this site as well where you can get all of our BR maps. Try some VCTF as well!

actipper, keep at it... you will get better... We all have been there and most learn pretty quickly how to deal with much high level players, but they will still get pwnd... after time you will also learn how to take them down with notable efficiency.

And I agree, bombing run is great! Check out RGC. They often play bombing run. CTC should do a bombing run nite and promote that game type... I know they will be successful.

By the way, if you need some tips and pointers, come to http://www.xcgpro.com Join our forums.

Thanks for the welcome.
I hope to pluck up the courage to come and get my ass kicked on your server in the near future.
I see from your forums that the "cheat v skill" debate rolls on over here as well :( I admin a few servers in AssaultCube which is an open source platform so cheating and it's prevention is a major issue there.
I shall keep my eye on the site for news of BR games. If it's okay I would like to give a game a try; I'll be top notch frag bait for some one I expect.
Thanks again.

Do come by actipper. I'm on the East coast, and am usually the only player on in the early afternoons and late mornings, so if you're in my time zone and need someone to help show you around the vctf mapping area, I'd be glad to! Oh, and just so you know, I'm not particularly good at bombing run myself, so if you see me palying, you have a target...lol. Welcome to our forums! See you soon...

Unfortunately i have to work, and during the summer months, unless it's pissing down with rain, I'm normally working from around 0600 to 2100. However, as my recent games on this clans server and a couple of bombing runs show, I need all the help I can get :) I may have a day off tomorrow, site agent wants the fence line changed, so I'll check the server to see if you are around. Nice offer and I will try to take you up on it. You're around six hours behind GMt?
